He threw eggs because a record executive said to Ian he would end up with egg on his face if he released this type of lo-fi solo stuff and it wouldn't sell. So it's Ian's way of giving it back to him ✌️
It's not about the elite, a record executive said to Ian that he would end up with egg on his face if he released solo stuff so it was Ian's way of giving it to him
@georgeblue11 The reason Ian is the true king is that he has never tailored his music to pander to the masses. This allows his music to be pure and not influenced by the fat blokes in pin stripped suits>)
I love that most of his songs sound the same but with varying quality. It’s a top notch fingers up to the masses that he can’t sing for toffee live too 😎
happiness is egg shaped😀.
One of the best debut songs ever from a solo artist, Awesome IB

Still remember first time I heard this sat outside the CIS building in Manchester in my car, I just loved it and still do.
I remember seeing this when I was younger. I remembered the egg percussionist, but not anything else. Surprised to learn it was Ian Brown.
I remember seeing this when i was around 8. I liked the catchy melody...
Now i'm a huge Brown fan!
i see you in asda ......clean up on aisle 3
I wanna play the eggs
Louis it really is a cracking instrument
its a metaphor about the elites going to a different planet while we all die lol

The mic was down too low on the eggs
I remember a 'Disgusted, Tunbridge Wells'-type woman phoning in to 'Points of View' to complain about this performance.
She probs wasn't happy with the muliltiracial type vibe going on here
I love r m8to read this
@WeightyNo1 probably had something to do that the music was never live on TOTP. Singing was live though.
Anyone know what the jacket is?

Better late than never! 😄
What was so "infamous" about the performance?
+RossiJenkins123 Still confused, not at all familiar with this issue. Could you elaborate?
People complained about the egg throwing. With a sort of "what about the starving children in Ethiopia" line.
